Well this year has been a roller coaster of a ride. A bunch of stuff happened that we will all surely remember. As of this moment, I have 146 watchers, have met , , , and . All of them were wonderfully kind, fun, and amazing.
This year also saw a bunch of cool discoveries, from new species to incredible things about the history of our planet.
This year has been awesome and let's hope next year will be just as awesome, and that's saying something, because this year we got semi-aquatic raptors, Prehistoric Kingdom fully funded, Avengers: Infinity War trailer finally released, the solar eclipse once again returns, and of course Phineas and Ferb confirmed to return for a crossover episode, because c'mon, that show was freaking hilariously entertaining (too bad Gravity Falls isn't coming back....yet).
Have a Wonderful New Year.

A Note on Man's Arrogance.
Hello everyone.
So, as you all know, I've been doing a Godzilla fanfic for quite a while now, and it's been progressing quite rapidly.
However, after going through the story more in my head, I've been noticing a lot of things that didn't line up and realized that the direction my story was heading wasn't exactly what I had anticipated.
Which is why, after some time to think and consult with a few people, I've decided to reboot Man's Arrogance.
Before going any further, I might as well post why I've decided to reboot the series.
1. Villain Setup: For those of you who read the Greenland Clash, you'll know that the big bad for "Phase 1" of
Death From Above: The Ecology of Giant Azhdarchids
Giant azhdarchids are awesome. The end.
If you want the whole story though, then you're going to have to read the rest of this post.
For those of you who are new to paleontology, azhdarchids are a group of pterosaurs that lived through the entirety of the Cretaceous period, and some members of the group are considered to be the largest creatures to have ever achieved powered flight, with wingspans of up to 10 meters, body masses which may have exceeded 250 kg, and heads that could reach 3 meters in length. In today's post, I would like to focus on the giant members of the family. How did such giant creatures find food, and what was their
Gorgonopsids had Giant, Bony Eyebrows.
Happy April Fools day!
Also, that title is actually serious. There really were gorgonopsians with kerationious bossess and other weird osteological correlates. Just search up Clelandina and you'll know what I mean.
The Mighty Marsupial Lion
"the fellest and most destructive of predatory beasts."
~Richard Owen, 1859
Those were the words of Richard Owen when he first described Thylacoleo carnifex more commonly called the Marsupial Lion. No one had ever seen something like it, its bizarre anatomy stupefied many a paleontologist. Many were baffled as to what it ate and how it functioned. Some said it would have eaten meat and was suggested to be anywhere from an egg-eater to a super-predator. Others thought its dentition was closer to a herbivore and suggested it ate plants. It would not be until more than a century later that scientists would better understand this animal.
